[NTLUG:Discuss] Can't login to CVS pserver over SSH tunnel

MadHat:

I looked at the cygwin installation doc and I downloaded and
ran the setup program.  It ran fine.  

My login on my Windows 2000 system has a space in it.  That is the
way the default the login was set-up when I installed the operating
system.


Thanks,
	Neil.
